Is Lamar Odom Hiding from Khloe Kardashian Refusing to Sign Divorce Papers?

Khloe Kardashian filed for divorce from her estranged husband more than 10 months ago, but it appears that Lamar Odom isn’t as ready to call it quits as she. The basketball star is nowhere to be found at the moment, and he’s not signing their divorce papers. According to sources close to the Kardashians, Odom has been doing this for several months now; disappearing and not answering any of Khloe’s calls or contact attempts, and he’s not signing the divorce papers she keeps trying to send him.

The couple wed several years ago after only a month of dating, and many people were pretty certain from the start that their marriage would not last. Well, they were right. According to those closest to the couple, there have been problems in the marriage for a long time. Aside from the fact that Kardashian spent years unsuccessfully trying to become pregnant – something that takes an emotional toll on any family – she’s spent the same number of years attempting to hide her estranged husband’s addictions and infidelities from her family. However, the secrets and the lifestyle she was leading just became too much for her. Now she wants to call it a day and be finished with the entire chapter in her life for good, but Odom isn’t having it.

“He needs to sign papers and he won’t. He disappears here and there, and she can’t find him. She just wants to move on,” says a friend of the family. At the moment, her only choices include filing papers to dismiss the entire divorce proceeding or filing papers to Enter a Default, which is the next logical step when one spouse will not respond within 30 days to papers served to him or her. If she is permitted to go forward with the default, Kardashian will no longer need the signature of her estranged husband to proceed with the divorce.
